Tanglewood, the summer home in the Berkshires of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, celebrates its 75th anniversary with a season of special programs and events beginning June 22 and concluding September 2, 2012. There will be international radio broadcasts and first-ever recording and educational programs, including 75 streams from the archive of recorded Tanglewood performances since 1937, which will be available free for 24 hours on the day of the release, after which they will be available for purchase.

Tanglewood schedules two 75th anniversary Galas

Two special gala concerts on July 14 and August 18 mark the Tanglewood’s 75th anniversary. The July 14 gala will feature the Boston Symphony, Boston Pops, and Tanglewood Music Center orchestras, with performances by Emanuel Ax, Yo-Yo Ma, Anne-Sophie Mutter, Peter Serkin, longtime Tanglewood friend James Taylor, the Tanglewood Festival Chorus, and other special guests, led by conductors John Williams, Keith Lockhart, and Andris Nelsons. This program will be made available to a worldwide audience through a series of international broadcasts, details of which will be announced at a later date.

Boston Pops Laureate Conductor John Williams, arguably the most well-known composer of his generation with many of the most memorable film scores of the 20th and 21st centuries to his credit, will be feted on the occasion of his 80th birthday year with a Boston Pops concert featuring classical music luminaries Yo-Yo Ma, Gabriela Montero, Jessye Norman, and Leonard Slatkin, along with performances by several Boston Symphony soloists who will be featured in Mr. Williams’s concert works.

BSO schedules two replicas of 1937 Tanglewood season

The Boston Symphony’s opening night concert of the 2012 Tanglewood season will set the tone for the 75th anniversary season with a program, under the direction of Christoph von Dohnányi, who was a Conducting Fellow at the Tanglewood Music Center in 1952, that replicates the very first BSO concert that took place on the Tanglewood grounds on August 5, 1937: an all-Beethoven program, opening with the Leonore Overture No. 3, followed by Symphony No. 6, Pastoral, and Symphony No. 5. This program will be made available to a worldwide audience through a series of international broadcasts, details of which will be announced at a later date.

A Boston Symphony all-Wagner program on July 21, featuring some of the best-known orchestral excerpts from Tristan und Isolde, Siegfried, Die Walküre, Parsifal, and Tannhäuser, under the direction of Wagner specialist Asher Fisch, will harken back to one of the most storied concerts from the orchestra’s first Tanglewood season in 1937, when a torrential downpour caused the August 12, 1937 all-Wagner concert to be interrupted three times, necessitating a shortening of the program due to leaks in the tent where the orchestra performed its first season.

This seemingly disastrous event triggered a happy outcome when funds raised immediately on the spot and soon thereafter were pledged toward building a permanent performance structure for the BSO—the historic Tanglewood Music Shed, which opened in the summer of 1938, and was rechristened the Koussevitzky Music Shed on the occasion of its 50th anniversary in 1988.

These programs are just two examples of what will be a season-long focus on many of the great musical moments of Tanglewood’s first 75 years.

Tanglewood 75th anniversary programs

A new discussion series, Concerning Music and Society, will feature a critics’ forum as well as a discussion on music and one on technology and film music. Further details will be announced at a later date.

75 new trees will be planted throughout the Tanglewood grounds enhancing what is already considered one of the most beautiful festival grounds anywhere in the world. In addition, Sandi Haber Fifield, a photographer from Westport, Connecticut, has been commissioned to create a souvenir poster in celebration of the special anniversary.

Tanglewood 2012 schedule highlight concerts

This amazing collection of poems would make a wonderful holiday gift!!

"Sewing Ties"

Attic fans pull Alabama air from shadowed rooms.

Rosa, the Smith’s black maid, makes soup

and sings, There is power, power,

wonder working power

in the precious blood of the lamb.

We’re guests while my father preaches a revival,

but the Smiths are busy. Bud hunts pheasants.

His sister, Sue, is packing for college.

I wander the rooms looking for something to do.

In a sparse bedroom I find a treadle machine,

spools of thread, small scissors, a bag of old ties,

and lay them out on the bed—bold roosters,

jeweled peacocks, regimental stripes.

I gather them onto a waistband,

and as my father calls all to come to Jesus,

I give myself to the five-eighths inch seams,

the machine’s whir.

After thirty years in private practice as a psychoanalyst, Cecele Kraus found herself writing poetry. Writing provided perspective and poetry became a way of life. Her work has appeared in Windfall, Naugatuck River Review, Passager, Backstreet, Chronogram, MyStoryLives, and two chapbook anthologies--Java Wednesdays and Zephyrs 2. Peace Corps experiences were the inspiration for a chapbook entitled Dreaming Barranquilla. In 2009, her poem, “Love Blooms,” won first place in the Hudson Valley Writers Guild poetry contest. She lives in Copake, New York. This poem appeared first in the Fall, 2009 issue of "Java Wednesdays, as “Longest Day of the Year."

It's All in the Name explains the concept of Lexigrams and the uncanny magic they can unfold for self-knowledge. The author begins by introducing simple words and taking the reader on a journey that shows how much we can find the truth we are searching for is contained within the words we use every day. After offering a few rules to guide the Lexigram process (and suggesting times to break those rules), she explains the interconnections among Lexigrams, astrology, and numerology. Sharita Star goes on to show how many of the Lexigrams that can be derived from names and titles relate to the very astrological and numerical guidance that governs them, providing historical evidence to show how this dynamic works. To do so, she offers references to zodiacal Sun signs and the Chaldean understanding of numerology. Moreover, Sharita provides numerous case studies of well-know individuals, past and present. It's All in the Name is a valuable tool for exploring the profound inner meanings of names and everyday words and for deepening one's intuitive capacity.

It's All in the Name is a valuable tool for exploring the profound inner meanings of names and everyday words and for deepening one's intuitive capacity.

WHY LEXIGRAMS?
Once one has the understanding of how planetary vibrations affect the signs, numbers, and letters of our lives, one must continue to open their mind to the potential of what a lexigram can determine. This allows us to see what has always been right in front us. There are hidden messages within our names that indicate the life we are to lead.

A lexigram is merely the intuitive phrasing of anagrams, which are words found within other names, words or titles. It takes those anagrams and creates phrases or sentences that tell a potential truth about that name, word, or title. A lexigram is one of the most amazing tools we can utilize to discover their story.

A BIT OF HISTORY…
It is not precisely known when one specific person or culture discovered lexigrams. Linda Goodman, a famous poet and astrologer, was the first to coin the term “lexigram.” She credits the word to the Druids with their mysticism of laying hidden meanings within the English language. We have determined through analysis that any life story is able to be told from the birth name. It is quite uncanny that even if the name is changed albeit by choice or through marriage, the story of that life is also changed. This allows us to be the author and editor of our own “biography.”

HOW TO LEXIGRAM:
As far as anyone has discovered, lexigramming a name or title can only be derived from characters within the English alphabet. Here are a few examples:

If we want to achieve HEALTH, we must learn to HEAL THE HATE

Typically the MOTHER is THE HOME

Our BROTHER more often than not is THE HERO

Ever wonder if LAUGHTER really canHEAL THE HEART?

WHEN DO I LEXIGRAM?
Lexigrams can be used whenever one wants to find out the simple truth about any name or title. Our analysis thus far has shown how a poorly chosen name can bring unintentional negativity to the person or business. This is why we should use this process when choosing a name for a new business or in naming a child, so we may give them

the most positive future.

WHAT CAN LEXIGRAMS DO FOR ME?
Lexigrams indicate our potential and what we may need to avoid to smooth our path to success. Alongside astrology and numerology, lexigrams are a significant and unique star secret that brings us clarity and understanding.

BIOGRAPHY

Since the age of 7, Sharita remembers being attracted to reading the horoscope section of the newspaper. Raised in the beauty of upstate NY, the first period of her life was spent in solitude as a nature lover and a horse enthusiast. She went on to be an honors graduate of SUNY Oneonta with a Bachelor of Science in Theatre. Her studies include acting, singing, drawing, writing, photography, yoga and a formal and extensive education
in astrology, numerology and metaphysics.
Called to be of service to others, she credits much of this inspiration and knowledge to the teachings of Astrologer and Poet Linda Goodman. Goodman's teachings introduced the insight of how deeply astrology, numerology and lexigrams are connected. Sharita discovered that Goodman's revelations were accurate when applied to any person or entity. She has concluded that in order to gain complete insight, these three intertwining subjects must be interpreted together.
Since establishing Sharita's Star Secrets, People.com has consulted Sharita about the reality shows 'American Idol,' 'The Bachelorette,' and 'Average Joe: Hawaii.' She has appeared on numerous notable radio shows such as CBS Radio's 'Visions' with Psychic Barbara Mackey, 'The Suzane Northrup Show' to Contact Talk Radio's 'Turning of the Wheel' with Chris Flisher and 'Anchored in Astrology' with Debra Clement.

profiles of featured talent.

For ages 3 and up, she fosters and nurtures any soul's innate abilities by translating our planets knowledge through art projects and genuine universal education. Her unique development of hands-on and engaging projects soundly educate the willing student about the real wonders of 'As Above, So Below.' A regular psychic reader at The Awareness Shop, considered to be one of the top metaphysical stores in New York, she holds
her classes here as well.
An honored member of the professional blogger team at 'Create Your Health' with Peter Bedard, Sharita features weekly updates through her creation, 'Your Astral Health.' Furthering upon being in the know of our planets above, she provides undeniable evidence that when one honors an astral perspective, the blessings of our seemingly lost and truly valuable ancient wisdoms are able to presently provide us the result of leading
